Palmers 'Spring' into action for accumulator challenge

News

10 May 2015

Spring has sprung at Palmers Garden Centre and the countdown to the end of their Accumulator Challenge is getting ever nearer.

Both of their branches (at Enderby and Ullesthorpe) are involved in the LOROS Accumulator Challenge and are fighting for at least one of the three awards.

They are currently selling lovely spring plant arrangements and cakes as well as tickets for their LOROS raffle. Encouraging their customers to pay for parking, on a voluntary basis, is also helping to increase their original stake.

Magdalena Korytkowska, Fundraising Co-ordinator at LOROS said: “Palmer's staff are using all the entrepreneurial skills to turn their £50 into megabucks to support our Hospice!

"I know they still have lots of ideas to bring to fruition before their challenge ends in June. I wish the team the very best of luck and look forward to seeing what they do next."
